• • The scandal of the Town Hall – closed for eight years? Or worse?

    • 21 May 2015
    • Wellington Scoop
    • Wellington’s Town Hall is under serious threat of eventual demolition. And in any case, according to the timetable received by councillors it is to be closed for at least eight years. The issue is not that it should be opened immediately but that strengthening should be immediately continued without delay.

• • The Congestion Pricing Roadmap

    • 19 Apr 2008
    • Eye of the Fish
    • It seems that the roadmap to congestion pricing is itself congested: gridlocked by an array of obstacles and opinions. We have a $200k report/proposal, dense legal obstacles, technical challenges, a mayor that is “not even lukewarm”, and a public that is overwhelming against the issue. So what happens next? Nothing?

• • Wellywoodgate: Where is the Mayor?

    • 23 May 2011
    • WCC Watch
    • Given that the Wellywood sign, which has thousands and thousands of Wellingtonians up in arms, is being put up by a company which is 34% owned by the council, and requires a resource consent from the council, you’d have thought that the Mayor would be showing a bit of leadership on the issue.
